“Real Estate is always a better investment than the stock market. You have something tangible and it increases in value over time. Stocks are too unpredictable unless they are stocks of brick and mortar companies.”

Looking back at these comments and you can see how the housing bubble got started.

Homes may be tangible, but they have a value to them as well. Everything has a value. When you start thinking that house prices only go up, that’s the pitfall. Sure house prices go up over many years, slowly, but so has the stock market.

Depending on what field of expertise you are in is a better factor. I don’t know much about real estate so I can get much better returns from the stock market. Vice versa.

Real Estate is always a better investment than the stock market. You have something tangible and it increases in value over time. Stocks are too unpredictable unless they are stocks of brick and mortar companies. The only companies that I would really suggest are railroads because they are going to carry freight for a long time to come and the rate of returns are good.

“Perhaps they realize now that what they were touting wasn’t investing but speculating” I agree to this statement about inexperienced investors but I think new and young investors should learn from the mistake. Learn to invest not to speculate and speculating is tune to gambling – Use the brain not the heart…..

“When greed overtakes sanity and reason you will find people making rationalizations to justify their behavior.” Amen to that. Timing is everything in both real estate and stock investing. Personally, I like certain types of real estate investing over stocks. A few greedy (or just temporarily insane) people can bring down a company. But as a wise man once said, “they’re making more people every day, but they’re not making any more dirt.”
